I'm ok with that, but I think we should drop the "32" from MINGW in
the first place.

Does anybody rely on the "WOW64" in uname -s output?  I just checked
the scripts in /bin in my installation and none of it seems to check
for that info.

And then again, it *is* redundant, given the uname -m output...

cygwin64$ uname -s
CYGWIN_NT-6.1

cygwin64$ uname -m
x86_64

cygwin32$ uname -s
CYGWIN_NT-6.1-WOW64

cygwin32$ uname -m
i686

Yep, seems redundant.
